Seems to me with the descriptions of the thongs and the belt and the corresponding hints, you should be able to make a slingshot, but I haven't figured out how to do that.

Also is the arrows are too noisy, would a feather help here? Have you seen a bird? If my idea of a slingshot works, that could ...

long way home

I am stuck at the end of this game. WOS availability. In case there is someone out there who wishes to tackle this old adventure, I am providing detailed information about it.

This is an eight-part game that was serialized in an e-zine when the Spectrum 16 and 48 were in use. Each month another ...

Yes, Part 1 is bugged. Parts 2, 3 and 4 are playable.

I sent Jacob a solution, but he hasn't posted it yet.

Have fun.

So we're still both stuck about how to kill the deer. I'll have to return it. Am working on a few more games, but there appears to be little interest out there at the moment ...

So, how did you make the shoes? You need to skin the deer? But how do you kill it?

Sorry to hear about your hard drive failure. Did you lose everything?

lone brave

This looks to be a good game (WOS availability).

Anyone willing to play this? Assistance would be appreciated.

At this point, I have a blanket, a knife, thongs, the belt (that I am wearing), the twine, a stone, arrows and a bow (this needs to be made), twigs (and sticks which appear to have been ...

I am trying to write up the solution for Lightmare(from both of us). Have you been able to play/find Part 2? I think that some of the objects may be needed for that.

So, before I ignore all the unnecessary objects for Part 1, rather than drop them in a cetral location for easier retrieval, can you ...

Yes, I finally got the pump to work. USE PUMP works the firwst time, but then you need to PUMP BELLOWS.

Aaargh to the "pull pegs together"

In thanks for you being so helpful (I I may be writing yet again), I will write up a solution in your name.

At the pegs, where the sword hangs

I push, pull, lift, but all I get is a little movement.

What am I missing here? Even going back and fight taratan doesn't get me further except to find out that the sword is gone.

Insert tongs in furnace? Right, right, sure.... (said with a facetious tone.)And "insert can in furnace" is not allowed???

I will write again I am sure.

Well, here I am again.

I am missing something.

I can't get the temperature to rise past medium.

Oh my lord!!!

OK I finished part 2. I couldn't get Spectaculator to load part 3, so I had to find the game that had three separate parts.

Anyway...

I got through the S maze. I managed to survive the torture chamber. I got past the scented room.

I have the can(ister) - cylinder also works here ...

Thanks for the tip about the serpent's tail.

I have found my way to the tribes. I see a camel. I can make a lasso. I presume I need to catch the camel, but it keeps moving off.

I have tried waiting in various locations, but get nowhere.

And now?

I saw the man in the cage, but can't get to it ...

I haven't seen a hole, let alone a mongoose..So at this time, there is nothing to do with the bat?

I have made some progress. Not with the bat...Is it really needed?

I have gotten the ivory disc and the silver disc, the robe too and food.

I am in the water. Stuck in two places - at the sentry ...

Now I am in Part 2.

Be prepared for more questions.

I have spent some time mapping this.

I have some mud. I see a bat. I need to get close enough to catch it. Don't know what to do here.

Also where do you use the mud? How do you use the mud? I have found some verbs, but...

Yes, I have seen those. But no verb I try does anything.

OK - I was focusing on the carving not the wall. Aaargh.
